"The thing is? You don't need to fight if nobody gets close to you. That's what the shooting's for," Grif explained. Well, he supposed that was technically fighting, but that was just details. "That's why you never take a knife to a gun fight."

Though really Grif had gotten into an argument about this before and concluded that it was a good idea, because nobody would expect that, you just needed to have a gun too. This was the kind of discussion you ended up having on the roof during guard duty with nothing else to do.

"And there's a difference between ground vehicles and like... ships and stuff. I don't know. I've never done that before," he said, thinking. Really, he wasn't sure about heights. If you gave him a warthog jeep he could make the sucker tapdance, but flying things? That involved like... up and down.

Up and down would be new.

Grif himself was calm by this point, just talking. It was a conversation, not a fight, and it was all good in his book. He was talking to a draconian kid thing, which was weird, but all things considered that wasn't as bad as it could be.
